Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"This time, it was my fault, Xiao Hao. I was too complacent and forgot Luna's true colors."

But what Mai Xiaowen said next made Zhang Hao, who was preparing to close his eyes and wait for death, stare wide-eyed at her.

"Xiao Hao, this morning, your sister used the incident of you and me touching each other to provoke Luna. I didn't expect her to act so quickly. Please don't blame your sister, okay?"

Mai Xiaowen turned her head to look at Zhang Hao's still swollen lips, but in her heart she began to curse Luna.

Mai Xiaowen: Damn Luna, did you have to use so much force? Xiao Hao's lips are swollen. He was saying he was allied with me before, but pshaw, he's just a loser who knows how to follow me around eating leftovers.

"No, how could I possibly blame Xiaowen? It's not your fault. (Hehe, actually it wasn't that painful, just a little hard to breathe at most (?'?`?))"

Zhang Hao quickly comforted him, saying, "You're just kidding. We should be thankful that they haven't blamed us yet."

"Xiao Hao, does your mouth still hurt?"

"Without Sister Xiaowen, my lips are just swollen, but they don't hurt."

"Did you resist back then?"

"Of course, Sister Xiaowen, it's just that the enemy is invincible."

"So... is it comfortable?"

"So comfortable...!!!!!! I feel so uncomfortable without Sister Xiaowen!"

Zhang Hao realized he had been too naive. How could Mai Xiaowen not care? All those questions she asked earlier were just a way to trick him into revealing more information, and he had actually succeeded.

Zhang Hao: The city is full of traps, I want to go back to the countryside. ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3

"Hmph! You little rascal, Xiao Hao, you probably forgot all about your sister Xiao Wen back then!"

Mai Xiaowen pouted in dissatisfaction as she looked at the embarrassed Zhang Hao in front of her.

"Hehehe, Sister Xiaowen~~"

Zhang Hao instinctively ran into Mai Xiaowen's arms and started to act cute. This trick always worked on Mai Xiaowen, and this time was no exception.

"Hmph! Alright, alright, you'd better make it up to your sister tonight, you hear?"

Mai Xiaowen pinched Zhang Hao's nose, then stood up as well.

"Alright, it's almost lunchtime, let's go downstairs and eat!"

When Zhang Hao and Mai Xiaowen arrived downstairs, they found Luna already sitting on the sofa.

After exchanging a glance, the two snorted coldly and turned their heads away.

Zhang Hao sat down next to Wei Long and told them about the embarrassing things that happened to Naroi at Dam Zero, which made everyone laugh.

As Deep Blue brought out the prepared dishes, suddenly! Roy kicked open his own door, sniffing the aroma like a jackal that hadn't eaten in a long time.

"I smell it! Chicken drumsticks! It smells like braised chicken drumsticks!!!"

Chapter 138 Awakening

After dinner, Zhang Hao and Mai Xiaowen returned to their room and began their quest for the new game. As for Luna and Zoya, Mai Xiaowen scoffed, saying, "You're kidding. In Xiao Hao's mind, if he really came across a game he liked, he'd probably throw even his good older sister aside."

"Hey, slow down, Hao Hao, what's the rush? You can play until midnight tonight, okay? Anyway, it's not my patrol time tomorrow."

Mai Xiaowen had barely stepped off the table when Zhang Hao hurriedly dragged her to the room, eager to begin their enjoyable game time.

"Quick, Xiaowen, hurry, hurry, I can't wait!"

Zhang Hao stared longingly at the computer that was booting up. He hadn't done anything all day except watch a joke by Roy, and the day was basically over. There were only 4 hours left until he went to bed at night, so every minute and second was extremely important!

"Alright, come on, you little brat, this is a two-person team effort, so don't drag me down!"

Mai Xiaowen then gave Zhang Hao a brief introduction to the game, and after she finished explaining, Zhang Hao had a pretty good understanding of it.

"Oh, I understand, Xiaowen. It's about two-player cooperative puzzles, right? Don't worry, I've always been very good at solving puzzles."

Zhang Hao said confidently, "To be honest, back then, our 'gaming genius' Zhang Hao and his classmates spent two weeks completing the game 'Fireboy and Watergirl' in an internet cafe."

That's why Zhang Hao was full of confidence when facing this two-player cooperative game.

"Hmph! Stop bragging. Which of those single-player puzzle games you played before did you actually beat? Just stick close to me and let me carry you to new heights!"

Mai Xiaowen looked speechlessly at Zhang Hao, who was once again displaying his "mysterious confidence." In her eyes, Xiao Hao was just a bad kid who loved to play games but was terrible at them. After being driven crazy by those single-player puzzle games, Zhang Hao tearfully came to Mai Xiaowen asking her to teach him how to play online games.

So Mai Xiaowen began to carry the team, leading the newbie Zhang Hao to dominate the game. Seeing Zhang Hao occasionally casting admiring glances at her, Mai Xiaowen secretly felt smug.

This time, let's have our invincible Xiaowen lead our "pro player" Xiaohao to a smooth victory in this two-player game!

. . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . .

After the alarm clock rang at midnight, Mai Xiaowen collapsed weakly onto the bed behind her, muttering:

"Impossible, this is impossible! Hehehe, I'm a gaming expert, how come I can't even get past the second level with Xiao Hao?"

Zhang Hao silently shrank to the side. Something seemed wrong this time. It seemed that he had broken Xiaowen's Dao heart.

"Xiaowen, stop doing this. Let's go to sleep. We're done playing."

Zhang Hao climbed over to Mai Xiaowen's side to comfort her, saying that the game was just too difficult. The first level was so easy that he and Xiaowen easily passed it. He thought he could quickly beat it tonight, but he didn't expect to get stuck on the second level.

The second level requires Mai Xiaowen to control her character to retrieve a key. Zhang Hao, after seeing Mai Xiaowen obtain the key, activates a switch to unlock several levels and arrives at the finish line to wait for Mai Xiaowen. However, there is a time limit. If Mai Xiaowen's character does not reach the finish line before the time expires, she will die.

Actually, this level wasn't difficult, but Zhang Hao's "invincible skills" kept us stuck for two hours. Eventually, Mai Xiaowen couldn't take it anymore and decided to switch roles and try again.

But just when Mai Xiaowen thought there would be no problem this time, another problem arose.

Just as Mai Xiaowen successfully reached the finish line, another obstacle appeared before Zhang Hao...

So, as you can imagine, Mai Xiaowen was completely dumbfounded by Zhang Hao. Had Xiao Hao made a deal with the devil? Had he traded all his gaming talent for good looks?

"No way! Hao Hao, let's continue. I'm going to stick with this game today. There's no one I can't carry. Even Shen Lan, who has never played games before, has never lost to me in shooting games."

"No, Xiaowen, you really need to calm down! I... I'm sleepy, can you hold me while I sleep?"

Zhang Hao was also startled by Mai Xiaowen's appearance and quickly hugged her to comfort her. He joked that with his current condition, he probably wouldn't need to sleep at all.

"Hmm, Xiao Hao (takes a deep breath), okay, okay, go rinse your mouth, let's go to sleep first."

Seeing that Zhang Hao had already said he was sleepy and wanted to go to bed, Mai Xiaowen gave up on that idea. Otherwise, she would have definitely shown off her solo skills in front of Zhang Hao.

After Zhang Hao finished washing up, Mai Xiaowen pulled him into bed and turned off the room light with a "snap".

(If possible, please turn on the lights when using your phone at night! ('▽`???))

Goodnight, Hao Hao.

"Okay, goodnight, Xiaowen..."

After the lights in Mai Xiaowen's room were turned off, the entire Special Operations Unit fell completely silent.

"Um... how much time has passed?"

"It's been a month already. Last time, thanks to you, things would have been really troublesome."

If Zhang Hao were to enter the system space now, he would be surprised to find that [Zero], who had helped him many times, was now in the system space, and it seemed that 9527 knew him.

"Hmm, it's nothing. I've already helped him twice out of four times. You promised me your body?"

[Zero] A body of a handsome young man with a height of 1.8 meters was formed in Zhang Hao's mental space. If Zhang Hao saw this, he would definitely cause a ruckus with 9527 again.

"Here, take a look at this. It's a Grim Reaper's artifact. I've added a customizable character creation system for you. You're welcome."

"Didn't you fail to see if I was dead or not before you took over my body...?"

"Okay, okay, stop saying things that make people unhappy. Can't you be a little more tactful? I'm making it up to you, aren't I? Xiao Hao is better than you. By the way, look at Xiao Hao now, how about it? He didn't embarrass you with your body, did he?"

[Zero] Hearing this, he saw Zhang Hao, who was still fast asleep, through the system space. Looking at that incredibly cute face, his tone softened a little, even though he had been speaking coldly before.

"There's nothing shameful about it. He saved my life. If you hadn't taken my body directly, you wouldn't have discovered my soul that hadn't completely dissipated. He's a good person, very innocent, and I like him."

9527: Hehe, looks like a pretentious guy. ___*( ￣皿￣)/#____

Chapter 139 The wronged Xiao Hao, the helpless Ling

"Don't worry, when Xiao Hao upgrades this system again, I will hand over your affairs and your artificial body to him. At that time, I will not owe you anything."

9527 said arrogantly, "This 'zero' is really boring. It's a deadpan character who's always pretending. It's not as good as my own Xiao Hao."

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll continue hibernating."

9527: (╬▔ Pan▔)╯

Unaware of the truth, Zhang Hao was still indulging in his dream. In his dream, he helped Said drive away the Hafk Group, successfully liberated Asara, and returned to China to live a peaceful life. He even won the world championship in the game competition!

"Hehehe, we are the champions, hehehe."

Time flew by and it was already the morning of the next day. After Mai Xiaowen woke up, she opened her eyes to see her precious little Hao Hao talking in his sleep. After listening for a while, Mai Xiaowen was both amused and exasperated. Sigh, this child... as long as he's happy.

It's not that Mai Xiaowen is pessimistic about Zhang Hao, it's just that Mai Xiaowen really thinks that if Xiao Hao and Shen Lan played the same game separately, Zhang Hao would probably be completely outmatched by Shen Lan!

"Hehehe, pentakill! Hey, speak up!"

Suddenly, Zhang Hao seemed to be dreaming of an exciting place, which woke him up. However, after opening his eyes, he found that he was not at the competition venue. After a few seconds of silence, Zhang Hao closed his eyes again and lay down.

"Hey! Hao Hao, get out of bed and go to the gym to exercise, okay? Even though we don't have any missions to take care of right now, we still need to keep exercising, understand?"

Mai Xiaowen dragged Zhang Hao, who was pretending to be dead, out of bed and rushed him to the bathroom to wash up. Honestly, if this were China, Mai Xiaowen would naturally allow Zhang Hao to stay in bed, and might even stay in bed with him.

But this is Asara, and no one here can guarantee their safety. The absence of missions does not mean they can relax. As soldiers, they must be ready for battle at any time. So, after seeing Zhang Hao so engrossed in the internet, a few people from the Special Operations Department secretly held a meeting behind Zhang Hao and Roy's backs. The purpose was to make Zhang Hao aware of the need to be ready for combat at any time.

"Hey! Xiao Hao, you're up so early today. Want to go for a run with me later? I'll give you a good workout."

When Zhang Hao finished and went downstairs, he ran into Red Wolf, who was also going downstairs for breakfast. Just as Zhang Hao was about to politely decline, a familiar voice rang in his mind.

"Go away, you're too weak right now."

Zhang Hao: This isn't the sound of 9527, is it?

But after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Hao immediately realized that this was the [Zero] who had helped him escape from Reiss before.

"You! You're awake!"

"Yes, listen to me, go exercise. You need to exercise now."

After saying that, Zero fell silent.

"Hey! Xiao Hao, hello? Inviting someone to run can burn out the CPU? That shouldn't be possible!"
